It's time to open up a new challenge! So many ideas have run through my mind for this next round but I can only choose one. I was watching the French Open when I realized how I liked the term OPEN.....I'm hoping this challenge will offer several different directions and also leave it OPEN for you to choose something totally different whether it be in color, design, size, theme, etc. The theme is totally or not-so totally OPEN! Take it literally or make it open as in an open art event. We OPEN our mail every day, we OPEN parcels and presents,

... flowers OPEN and so beautifully!

...the OPEN bridge....

...OPEN jars...

..OPEN doors....

..behind some OPEN doors..... mmmm they're almost ready too! Quick get this posted!...

...the OPEN book....

we OPEN the kiln (ok that one was for me),

................................................. eyes wide OPEN?....

...wide OPEN track....

... I could go on and on ... but if you don't want to use OPEN in any of the literal expressions or meanings then treat this challenge as simply OPEN, with no restrictions. Go ahead make that big quilt or that tiny one, or that long skinny one, or make a quilted vase .... the them is OPEN! Of course if you find a little restriction helps you with your creative thinking then set your own restriction and pick what OPEN means to you and this challenge. Are you OPEN to it? I hope so. So let's go OPEN our sketchbooks or tablets and start the OPEN brainstorm!

Oh yes, the reveal day can also be OPEN but let me OPEN my calendar and go for September 12th.
